Semaglutide Micro-Dose Program

Precision dosing for a gentler start

The Micro-Dose Semaglutide Program is a physician-prescribed low-dose GLP-1 protocol designed for patients who want the appetite-suppressing benefits of semaglutide with improved tolerability. Using intentional, precision dosing starting at 0.15 mg and capping at 0.5 mg weekly, this program provides a gentler path to appetite control under U.S. licensed physician supervision and is prepared by licensed U.S. 503A and 503B compounding pharmacies.

What is Micro-Dose Semaglutide?

Micro-Dose Semaglutide is a physician-prescribed, low-dose GLP-1 program using compounded semaglutide prepared by licensed U.S. 503A or 503B pharmacies. Your physician may prescribe this program when they determine that precision low-dose therapy best meets your clinical needs — particularly for patients who benefit from gentler titration or improved tolerability.

Who is this program for?

This program is designed for GLP-1-naive patients concerned about side effects, patients sensitive to GI symptoms, those seeking appetite control or maintenance after losing weight on a higher dose, and anyone not requiring aggressive dose escalation. It's a gentler on-ramp to GLP-1 therapy.

What's the difference between Micro-Dose and standard Semaglutide?

Standard semaglutide therapy escalates to higher doses (1 mg, 1.7 mg, 2.4 mg). Micro-Dose has a hard ceiling at 0.5 mg weekly, focusing on appetite control with better tolerability rather than maximum-effect dosing. If you need higher doses, you can graduate to our standard Compounded Semaglutide program with the same physician.

Will I still see results at micro-doses?

Many patients report meaningful appetite suppression, reduced cravings, and steady changes in body composition at micro-doses, especially when paired with adequate protein and movement. Results are typically more gradual than higher-dose protocols. Individual response varies — your physician monitors progress and adjusts as needed.

What's the dosing schedule?

Weeks 1–2: 0.15 mg weekly. Weeks 3–4: 0.25 mg weekly. Weeks 5–6: 0.35 mg weekly. Week 7+: 0.5 mg weekly (maximum micro-dose). You may remain at any dose within this range if it's effective for you.

What are the common side effects?

At micro-doses, side effects are typically mild and short-lived — most often light nausea, occasional constipation, or mild fatigue during step-ups. Less common but more serious risks (pancreatitis, gallbladder issues, thyroid C-cell concerns) carry the same boxed warnings as standard semaglutide. Discuss your full medical history with your physician.

Why commit to multiple months?

The titration takes 7+ weeks to reach the 0.5 mg ceiling, so a multi-month commitment ensures you complete the full optimization window. Bundle pricing also locks in the per-month rate — and there's no auto-billing.

What if I need a higher dose?

If clinical response calls for dosing above 0.5 mg, you graduate to our standard Compounded Semaglutide program. This isn't an upsell — it's a clinical progression based on your individual response and goals.

Do I have to commit to a subscription?

No. Unlike most telehealth providers, GOAL.MD doesn't auto-bill compounded programs. Before each renewal, we reach out so you decide when to reorder. You're never locked in.

Is Semaglutide Micro-Dose FSA/HSA eligible?

Yes. Compounded semaglutide prescribed for weight management is FSA/HSA-eligible when prescribed by a licensed physician. We provide an itemized receipt for reimbursement.

How fast will my first shipment arrive?

Once your physician approves your prescription (typically within 24 hours of intake), the compounding pharmacy ships within 2–3 business days via expedited carrier. Most patients receive their first dose within 5–7 days of completing intake.

What this program costs per month

One price covering physician care, medication, supplies and shipping — there is no separate $95 physician-care fee on this program.

Bundle prices are the monthly figure on a multi-month term. The amount actually charged for the term is shown at checkout before you pay.

Injection supplies and free expedited shipping are included; nothing is auto-billed and a refill is only charged after you confirm it.

Eligibility is decided by your physician and by your state's rules.

Micro-dose compared with the standard personalized semaglutide program

A micro-dose schedule is a clinical choice made by your physician. No claim is made here that a lower dose produces more or fewer results, or that it is supported by any approved product label.

How treatment actually works, step by step

Is anything billed automatically?

No. GOAL.MD does not auto-bill compounded medication programs. Nothing reorders by itself and your card is only charged after you tell us to proceed.

Does GOAL.MD bill insurance?

No. GOAL.MD is a cash-pay practice. We accept credit cards, FSA/HSA cards, and financing through Affirm, Afterpay and Klarna.

What is included in the price?

One monthly price covers the physician care, the compounded medication from a licensed U.S. pharmacy, injection supplies and free expedited shipping. There is no separate membership fee on compounded programs.

What happens when my dose changes?

Your physician decides each step of your titration. The program price does not change with your dose.

How should I store my medication?

Follow the storage instructions supplied by the compounding pharmacy with your specific preparation. Storage requirements differ between preparations, so use the document in your shipment rather than a general rule.

What if I stop?

Speak to your physician before stopping. Because compounded programs are never auto-renewed, stopping simply means not confirming your next order.

My shipment is late or arrived warm — who do I contact?

Contact GOAL.MD support at customer@jellyfish.md with your order details and we will escalate with the pharmacy on your behalf. We do not guarantee a delivery date and we will not tell you a medication is still usable — if the condition of a shipment is in doubt, do not use it until your physician or the pharmacy has reviewed it. If delivery instructions you have received conflict, treat the prescribing information supplied with the medication as authoritative and ask us to confirm in writing.
